Jynks wrote:Luv it or hate it, you have to admit that this is probably one of the most influential films ever made. Completely changing cinema for all time, practically inventing the special effects industry as we know it to day, redefining the role of sound tracks and just plain and simply blowing the minds out of us when we were kids.

For those of you who are jaded X-swar fans, then try this little test... show the film to a kid who hasn't seen it.... I've done this many times.. and you can see these 3 films have lost nothing.

I am also going to collect other movies that relate to Star Wars in some way, paradies, fan films and the like.

IMDB wrote:As imminent conflict brews between the powerful Trade Federation and the peaceful planet of Naboo, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi travel to Naboo to warn the Queen of the galactic fallout which is to follow. Eventually, Naboo is invaded forcing the Jedis to evacuate the planet with the Queen and her court. They travel to the desert planet of Tatooine where they meet a slave boy called Anakin Skywalker who is evidently one with the Force. They enlist his help in fighting the war, while the Jedis confront one of the Dark Jedis behind the invasion, Darth Maul, while his master Darth Sidious continues to lead the invasion as a "phantom" behind the scenes

IMDB wrote:It has been three long years since the Clone Wars have first begun, and Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) have fought as hard as they possibly could. When the capital planet of Coruscant becomes under attack by the Separatist droid armies and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid) is kidnapped by the army leader, General Grievous (voiced by Matthew Wood), Anakin personal problems begin to develop, including his anger at the Jedi Council for not giving him the rank of Master, though he is on the council, and his plagued visions of his secret wife, Padme Amidala (Natalie Portman), dying in childbirth. He is determined to do anything to save her, no matter the cost. While Obi-Wan is sent to kill General Grievous on Utapau, Anakin is taken under Palpatine's wing, being subtly seduced by the Dark Side of the Force and convince that the Dark Side is power than can save his wife from death. Soon enough, a new, darker, ominous figure that would eventually be feared by the entire galaxy is formed: Lord Darth Vader. Obi-Wan, discovering Anakin's betrayal, sees no choice but to face his own apprentice in an attempt to bring back the young, loyal Jedi that had been like his own son, brother, and friend.

IMDB wrote:The Star Wars Holiday Special was a two-hour television special (including commercials) broadcast on November 17, 1978 on CBS. In it, Chewbacca and Han Solo visit Kashyyyk, Chewbacca's home world, to celebrate Life Day. Along the way, they are pursued by agents of the Galactic Empire who are searching for rebels on the planet. The special introduces three members of Chewbacca's family: his father, Itchy, his wife, Malla, and his son Lumpy. Later Star Wars novels would also feature these characters, notably Michael P. Kube-McDowell's Black Fleet Crisis trilogy, Patricia Wynne's "The Wookiee Storybook," and Matthew Stover's "A Forest Apart."

The program also features cameos by other Star Wars characters, including Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, R2-D2, Darth Vader, and Princess Leia (who sings the film's "theme song", set to the music of John Williams' Star Wars theme, near the end).

The Holiday Special is important for being the first film-length Star Wars story after the original movie, and for showing an expanded look at parts of that universe. For the most part, however, the plot serves as little more than a means to string together a series of musical numbers, celebrity cameos, and other variety-show acts. These include songs and comedy routines by such '70s talents as Jefferson Starship, Diahann Carroll, Art Carney, Harvey Korman, and Bea Arthur. Easily the most notable segment is an animated cartoon featuring the pre-Empire Strikes Back debut of Boba Fett.

IMDB wrote:The army of the Marauders, led by by King Terak and the witch Charal attack the Ewoks village. The parents and the brother of Cindel all die in this attack. Cindel and the Ewok Wicket escape and in a forrest they meet Teek a naughty and very fast animal. Teek takes them to a house in which a old man, Noa, lives. Like Cindel he also crashed with his Starcruiser on Endor. Together they fight Terak and Charal.

IMDB wrote:A parody of Star Wars, presented in the form of a movie preview. Young Fluke Starbucker, under the tutelage of Auggie "Ben" Doggie, learns to master the power of the Force, while teaming up with Ham Salad to rescue Princess Anne-Droid and aid her fight against the evil Empire.

IMDB wrote:1967 film student George Lucas has writer's block trying to finish his "Space Wheat" script, until a beautiful fellow student with a familiar hairstyle teaches him that the best stories are in plain sight

IMDB wrote: In a sendoff of the original Star Wars, several fingers and thumbs are used to act out the roles of would-be heroes and villians as the forces of finger and thumb clash of an evil super-weapon

IMDB wrote:For anyone who has not seen any Turkish cinema, Turkish Star Wars is certainly the best barometer you can find. Using actual footage from the original Star Wars, the story is about 2 space fighter pilots who are shot down over a desert planet and discover a colony of people who are being oppressed by horse back riding mutant savages! It's up to them to save the people from the oppressive mutants! Combining life size evil Muppets with a Flash Gordon like bad guy; and stealing not only footage and soundtrack from Star Wars, but music from Indiana Jones and others

IMDB wrote:King Roland of the planet Druidia is trying to marry his daughter Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga) to Prince Valium, but Vespa is kidnapped by the evil race of the Spaceballs. The Spaceballs ask Roland a tremendous ransom: all the air of Druidia (you see, the air of Spaceball had serious pollution problems...). The King decides to offer a generous amount of money to a space rogue, Lone Star, to persuade him to save Vespa. What follows is the parody of a _LOT_ of famous SF movies.

IMDB wrote:From 1980, this episode of the Muppet Show starred Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker. It starts off with scheduled guest Angus the Argyle Gargoyle getting ready to go on the air. But suddenly Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, and C-3PO crash into the studio, in search of Chewbacca the Wookiee, who was kidnapped, and since nobody liked Angus, they replaced his guest spot with the stars of Star Wars. Luke isn't really interested in hosting the show, so he calls in his 'cousin' Mark Hamill to help out. Mark does the necessary song-and-dance parts, until Luke Skywalker and the droids hijack the Swine Trek. After the Swine Trek makes a smooth landing, Luke and the Droids are captured by Derth Nader, and Chewbacca the Wookiee comes to the rescue.

Note that the starwars holiday special is VERY low quality.. even for what it is. As in the only copies around are from VHS recorded in 1978... even so this is a very bad release... I have seen better.. in fact used to have one better in a 2 cd vcd but I lost the darn disk!!!

If anyone has a alternat version of this then please let us know and share it on mule.

Hold onto your hats guys.... a old mate who used to be in my ftp group had downloaded my 2vcd version of Starwars Holiday special and is mailing a copy to me.. should be here inside a week.. I'll then post this in fileheaven and here (this deserves to be spread)

Remeber it is still ripped from a 1970's vsh but it will shit all over the copy that is posted in this thread at the moment.

bit. You can for example call them Part1,part2, etc. or for the cds, just chop of the film name and leave the rest of the group tags. It's futile editing the end product cos everytime you update it it reverts back

You should also add Clone Wars chapters 1-20.
And for the hardcore fans I will add a good V4D3R fan movie called Knight Quest, when I'm done this release i have by next week.
Actually-someone that is good at cleaning up and filtering mpegs should maybe clean them up real good-they are from TheForce.net. I will give it a shot.

sounds good.. I have a massive update for this thread on the way including all the added stuff as well as the dvdr I am making.... just waiting for the star wars definitive edition special features to come down so I can add a few of the movies from that to the dvd-r....

BTW... Wat do you guys think about having the star wars fan films on this thread.. I mean I put troopers/George Lucas in love as they are very very good, and hardware wars as it was the first one ever done and noticed by anyone.... there are literally millions of them... most are on direct download at the force.net.

Maybe we should make a 2nd thread for the fan films? Or just add only the films that site members nominate?

No need to post anything here that can be directly downloaded from TheForce.Net. Any reason I shouldn't make the 2 DVDR "Making of"s I have available? They do have hard Jap Subs, but #1 does has SPFX. I'm also trying to get the DVDR for Clone Wars that has English, Spanish, 2 Commentary tracks, & extras. Not sure about subs.
